Description

myRaceKit would like to welcome you to a half day with Elisabet Barnes and Sondre Amdahl where you will get a chance to learn more about equipment for ultra trail running, taste freeze dried food, test trekking poles, and test your own kit for an upcoming event if you have one. This day would be great for those preparing for Marathon Des Sables, a trail- or mountain ultra, but also or those who are curious about ultra running.

The day will include a talk by Elisabet and Sondre, a group run in the beautiful Hadleigh Park (home to the Olympic Mountain Bike course), a light lunch from our sponsor LYO FOOD. A detailed agenda will be issued prior to the day to those registered.

LEKI will be present to answer questions about trekking poles and instructipon and test poles will be available.

Elisabet Barnes is an ultra runner specilising in multi-stage races and twice winner of the gruelling Marathon Des Sables in the Sahara. Sondre Amdahl is an expert in mountain trail running with impressive results from many long trail races including Western States, Transgrancanaria, UTMB, and Everest Trail Race. Both Sondre and Elisabet are running coaches.

Tickets are GBP10 which is refundable against any purchase from myRaceKit
